 Xerxes did not grow up in the happiest of homes. For as far back as his memories go, his parents were always fighting over one thing or another, and to his mind, it was always about something small and stupid.
During the times when they were arguing, Xerxes hid up in his room with the three cats that they owned. He would try to pretend not to hear the fighting, but that was nearly impossible with how loud they could
be while screaming at each other. As he grew up, Xerxes still could never understand what made them fight as much as they did. But on one cold wintry night when Xerxes was twelve, his father packed his things
and left. Since then, Xerxes has never seen or heard anything about his father. For several months after his father left, his mother was like a broken woman, crying at random times over seemingly nothing. The
small bakery she ran suffered during that time as she couldn't bring herself to work and when she did, she burned everything that she baked.
Xerxes hated seeing his mother like this, sad and crying all the time, and tried whatever he could think of to cheer her up. He doesn't like seeing sad people so he always likes to try and get them to smile. As a
young child, Xerxes randomly picked up knitting after watching his mother doing it. He liked it, and it amused him to watch their cats attacking and playing with the balls of yarns while he worked. As one way to
try and make his mother smile, Xerxes would knit little stuffed animal dolls for her. The first few succeeded in getting a laugh out of her because they were a little deformed and hard to tell what exactly they were
supposed to be. But she appreciated the gesture, and Xerxes continued working on making the animals look more recognizable even after his mother had been cheered up.
Always being around his mother's bakery, Xerxes has a fondness for similar shops. The smell of freshly baked goods always reminds him of home and his mother and puts him in a good mood. He has helped his
mother in the bakery since he was little, quickly picking up on how to bake various breads and cakes and cookies and other sweets. His favorite is a pumpkin fudge that his mother only bakes in winter months. His
mother always worried that he would get fat because he was always snacking on things from her bakery. Xerxes believes his continued leanness is due to his constant movement. He never much liked spending time
sitting still, unless he was concentrating on knitting something for someone. He has become very adept at performing acrobatics as a means of burning off some of his excess energy.

[ from the alchemy guide ]
ღ creation alchemy ღ
This is the basic form of alchemy that allows for such things as creating potions and elixirs, explosive powders, roast beef that can turn your face purple with pink polka dots.... so on and so forth.
This is the type of Alchemy best suited for those not focused purely on battle, or who support from the rear
